Muscat and its surrounds offer a wide array of outdoor activities and the Bradt e-city guide includes details of many, from birdwatching and whale and dolphin watching to camping, desert safaris, rock climbing, caving, mountain trekking, wadi bashing, diving, snorkelling, game fishing, sailing and boat trips. Written in an engaging and colourful style that entertains as much as informs, Bradt’s e-City Muscat is drawn from the fourth edition of the larger Bradt guide to Oman.
